We construct knot invariants categorifying the quantum knot variants for all representations of quantum groups. We show that these invariants coincide with previous invariants defined by Khovanov for sl(2) and sl(3) and by…
In contrast to the usual quantum systems which have at most a finite number of open spectral gaps if they are periodic in more than one direction, periodic quantum graphs may have gaps arbitrarily high in the spectrum. This property of…
We use planar 4-valent graphs and a graphical calculus involving such graphs to construct an invariant for balanced-oriented, knotted 4-valent graphs. Our invariant is an extension of the $sl(n)$ polynomial for classical knots and links. We…
We define invariants for colored oriented spatial graphs by generalizing CM invariants, which were defined via non-integral highest weight representations of $U_q(sl_2)$. We apply the same method to define Yokota's invariants, and we call…
We present a comprehensive classification of invariants of knots and links associated with irreducible representations of \uqslN{}, when the parameter of quantization $q$ is a root of unity. We demonstrate that, besides the standard…
We study the connections between link invariants, the chromatic polynomial, geometric representations of models of statistical mechanics, and their common underlying algebraic structure. We establish a relation between several algebras and…
Using the spectral theory of weakly convergent sequences of finite graphs, we prove the uniform existence of the integrated density of states for a large class of infinite graphs.
Three new graph invariants are introduced which may be measured from a quantum graph state and form examples of a framework under which other graph invariants can be constructed. Each invariant is based on distinguishing a different number…
We extend the $sl(3)$-polynomial invariant for links to tangles. Motivated by Kuperberg's construction of this invariant via planar trivalent graphs, we first define a category of $sl(3)$ webs and its sister linear category, and describe…
In the model suggested by Smilansky one studies an operator describing the interaction between a quantum graph and a system of K one-dimensional oscillators attached at different points of the graph. This paper is a continuation of our…
We study relationships between the restricted unrolled quantum group $\overline{U}_q^H(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ at $2r$-th root of unity $q=e^{\pi i/r}, r \geq 2$, and the singlet vertex operator algebra $\mathcal M(r)$. We use deformable families…
We study families of self-adjoint operators with given spectra whose sum is a scalar operator. Such families are $*$-representations of certain algebras which can be described in terms of graphs and positive functions on them. The main…
Each rule $f$ that assigns a vector $f(G)$ to an $(n+1)$-graph $G$ determines a class (or property) of $n$-manifold invariants. An invariant $v=v(M)$ is in this class if, for any triangulated manifold $|G|=M$, one has that $v(M)$ is a…
The generalized volume conjecture and the AJ conjecture (a.k.a. the quantum volume conjecture) are extended to $U_q(\fraksl_2)$ colored quantum invariants of the theta and tetrahedron graph. The $\SL(2,\bC)$ character variety of the…
We construct graph-valued analogues of the Kuperberg sl(3) and G2 invariants for virtual knots. The restriction of the sl(3) or G2 invariants for classical knots coincides with the usual Homflypt sl(3) invariant and G2 invariants. For…
An invariant for cospectral graphs is a property shared by all cospectral graphs. In this paper, we establish three novel arithmetic invariants for cospectral graphs, revealing deep connections between spectral properties and combinatorial…
We introduce and investigate the solvable graph $\Gamma_\mathfrak{S}(L)$ of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra $L$ over a field $F$. The vertices are the elements outside the solvabilizer $\sol(L)$, and two vertices are adjacent whenever they…
In loop quantum gravity, states of quantum geometry are represented by classes of knotted graphs, equivalent under diffeomorphisms. Thus, it is worthwhile to enumerate and distinguish these classes. This paper looks at the case of 4-regular…
We clarify the correspondence between the two approaches to quantum graphs: via quantum adjacency matrices and via quantum relations. We show how the choice of a (possibly non-tracial) weight manifests itself on the quantum relation side…
Coloured Alexander polynomials form a sequence of non-semisimple quantum invariants coming from the representation theory of the quantum group $U_q(sl(2))$ at roots of unity. This sequence recovers the original Alexander polynomial as the…
